Big thx to Mark Danowsky (he/him) ✰✰✰ & ONE ART for publishing my contemplations on the 90s/now

Excited to share that my first chapbook - Big Man - will be published by Chestnut Review in 2025!! These poems honor my father's legacy as a teacher, union negotiator, veteran, father. News came on the anniversary of his death (...a sign from beyond?)

Incredibly excited to work with Chestnut Review to release this collection!

Big thank you to the editors at SWWIMmiami for publishing Candid 📸

Started throwing my poems into dall-e to see my words reflected back, honestly sort of love this one 😂❤️

The poem on repeat in my head. Jorie Graham's... Time Frame lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v44/…

Proof arrived! Little glimpse of the cover. Excited to have this in time for #AWP at the Chestnut Review booth ❤️

It’s official: Big Man (Chestnut Review Chapbooks) is available for purchase! katiekemplepoetry.com/book

Right feeling for today. Also, so much 💕 for NSN...

Best review of Big Man yet, a call from my 104yr old grandma to say she loved the poems 🥹❤️

Baby's first ⭐️s on Goodreads (Thank you kind reader 🙏📚)

Was gonna go to Pilates tonight, then remembered it’s St. Patrick’s Day… probably better to stay home & read ghost stories than become one. So, finished reading this awesome 👻 book by Mario Aliberto III

Thrilled to read at the LA Central Library on Thursday, Mar 27 at 6pm w/ the Chestnut Review crew! #AWP25

Thank you to "All Of It" for airing "Heart failure as River Styx" today, from my memoir-poetry book Big Man about my father, who grew up in Yonkers 🙏❤️ Best way to close out Poetry Month!

With gratitude to New Verse News for curating this poem alongside works that document events in L.A. The majority does not want violence. We are the majority.

Brilliant monorhyme sonnet

Thanks to feralpoetry.net for including my election day & morning after poems in the Revolution issue.

Found poem? Robert Reich...

Thanks to Sixth Finch & editor Rob MacDonald for including "Not Covered" in the summer issue. Some truly great poems & art here...
